Beck has removed the old coal shed
near the Wichita depot and the tele-

lpOles and established new loop at the
east end.
We are indebted to our old friend
J. G. Bush, for q complimentary ticket
of admission to the Cheyenne County,
(Neb.) Fair. of which Mr.. Bush is
secretary.
Wonder If the Allen county democ-
racy know that there is Judge to be
elected this fall? One would not sup
pose so from the proceedings Of their
convention.
We are requested to give notice that
the Presbyterian Ladies Society will
meet at the church ut 3 o'clock next
Monday afternoon instead of on Tues
day as heretofore.

trip. tickets good returning until Oct.
18th, 1857. J. s. Turner, Agent.
The democrats of Franklin county
have decided not to put "a ticket in the
field this fall. Too bad the democrats
of Allen county had not thought of
this i'm time-it would have saved their
candidates lots Of bootless worry md
expense.
Mr.. 6. II. Gregg is now in charge a t
the Wichita depot. He seems to be a
very pleasant Dung man and we hope
he will be retained here long enough
for US to get acquainted with him. The
Company does not help its business by
constantly changing its agents.
1t is pleasant sight to witness the
big engine at the Carriage Works run
every day by natural gas. Nofireman,
no ashes or cinders, no coal bill at the
end of the month. The only thing to
regret about it Is that there is no smoke
coming out of the big chimney.
1--WE had the pleasure Monday of
making the acquaintance of DR.. Gull
yer, the democratic nominee for county
clerk. The Doctor is pleasant gentle
man who will doubtless accept his
defeat nextmOnth with as much grace
as could beexpected under the circum.
stances.
The attention of members of the re-
publican central committee Is directed
to call for meeting of the commit |
tee at lola next Tuesday at 2 O'Clock.
As this is probably the only meeting
that will be held prior to the election,
it is important that every member of
the committee be present.
Our Usage correspondent seems to feel as
though they had been sighted over there In |
the distribution of the democratic candidates. |
We see the matter through the same glasses. |
Democrat. |
Let not your souls be troubled. |
There is no danger whatever that the |
candidates elected this fall will all |
come from one part of the county;-the |
republican ticket is excellently well |
distributed.
The Allen county fair, without |
charges If any kind, without official |
premiums or horse races, has proved |
the most successful county fair ever |
held in the State. The REGISTER |
doomed it, and it doomed the REGIS.

In Fulton, all boys between ten and |
eighteen years of age who are neither |
ut work or at school will be put on the |
rock pile. Good enough. 1fthis rule
were adhered to in every town in Kan
sas there would be an end Of much of
the hoodlumism that now affiicts many
of them.
We learn that work on the Parsons
and Pacific road has been suspended
in Usage township. 1t seems that an
error in one Of the petitions upon which
the bond election was called in Rich
township, has been discovered, and |
the work will all have to be done over.
This lands poor little Kincaid once
more on the anxious seat.
Just before going to press we learn
that a telegram has been received
bringing the sad announcement of the
death Of M. NJ. Hartman, which 0c-
Cured at the home of his daughter at
Ridgway, ILL.,, on Wednesday night.
The remains will be brought home
for interment, and are expected to ar
rive at = o'clock tomorrow afternoon.
II we are not badly mistaken the north side
of the county got BADLY left'' last saturday.
1t is very strange indeed that Humboldt should
attempt to make us believe that all she want
ed was Culver for clerk, and when the OppOr-
tunity was presented gobble up everything
Democrat.
There, there, never mind. The
whole ticket will be "badly left" in. "A
few weeks more and it will be your
turn to laugh.
